* [PATCH] lockdep: debug_show_all_locks & debug_show_held_locks vs. debug_locksJarek Poplawski2007-03-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lockdep's data shouldn't be used when debug_locks == 0 because it's not updated after this, so it's more misleading than helpful. PS: probably lockdep's current-> fields should be reset after it turns debug_locks off: so, after printing a bug report, but before return from exported functions, but there are really a lot of these possibilities (e.g. after DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON), so, something could be missed. (Of course direct use of this fields isn't recommended either.)

* [PATCH] fix extra BIOS invocation during resumePavel Machek2007-03-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It causes extra moon icons blinking on x60, and breaks at least two other systems. During resume, we do not know that "reboot"/"shutdown" method was used, so we assume "plaform" and call BIOS, anyway... This is 2.6.21 material, and should fix 2 or 3 regressions from 2.6.20.

* [PATCH] clockevents: Fix suspend/resume to disk hangsThomas Gleixner2007-03-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I finally found a dual core box, which survives suspend/resume without crashing in the middle of nowhere. Sigh, I never figured out from the code and the bug reports what's going on. The observed hangs are caused by a stale state transition of the clock event devices, which keeps the RCU synchronization away from completion, when the non boot CPU is brought back up. The suspend/resume in oneshot mode needs the similar care as the periodic mode during suspend to RAM. My assumption that the state transitions during the different shutdown/bringups of s2disk would go through the periodic boot phase and then switch over to highres resp. nohz mode were simply wrong. Add the appropriate suspend / resume handling for the non periodic modes. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* [PATCH] hrtimer: prevent overrun DoS in hrtimer_forward()Thomas Gleixner2007-03-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hrtimer_forward() does not check for the possible overflow of timer->expires. This can happen on 64 bit machines with large interval values and results currently in an endless loop in the softirq because the expiry value becomes negative and therefor the timer is expired all the time. Check for this condition and set the expiry value to the max. expiry time in the future. The fix should be applied to stable kernel series as well.

So if the time is set long before the next timer, there will be a period when a gettimeofday() won't reflect the correct time.

* | [PATCH] highres: do not run the TIMER_SOFTIRQ after switching to highres modeThomas Gleixner2007-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TIMER_SOFTIRQ runs the hrtimers during bootup until a usable clocksource and clock event sources are registered. The switch to high resolution mode happens inside of the TIMER_SOFTIRQ, but runs the softirq afterwards. That way the tick emulation timer, which was set up in the switch to highres might be executed in the softirq context, which is a BUG. The rbtree has not to be touched by the softirq after the highres switch. This BUG was observed by Andres Salomon, who provided the information to debug it. Return early from the softirq, when the switch was sucessful.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The programming of periodic tick devices needs to be saved/restored across suspend/resume - otherwise we might end up with a system coming up that relies on getting a PIT (or HPET) interrupt, while those devices default to 'no interrupts' after powerup. (To confuse things it worked to a certain degree on some systems because the lapic gets initialized as a side-effect of SMP bootup.)

This happens because we have the following code in kernel/hrtimer.c: migrate_hrtimers(int cpu) [...] old_base = &per_cpu(hrtimer_bases, cpu); new_base = &get_cpu_var(hrtimer_bases); [...] spin_lock(&new_base->lock); spin_lock(&old_base->lock); Which means the spinlocks are taken in an order which depends on which cpu gets shut down from which other cpu. Therefore lockdep complains that there might be an ABBA deadlock. Since migrate_hrtimers() gets only called on cpu hotplug it's safe to assume that it isn't executed concurrently on a The same problem exists in kernel/timer.c: migrate_timers(). As pointed out by Christian Borntraeger one possible solution to avoid the locking order complaints would be to make sure that the locks are always taken in the same order. E.g. by taking the lock of the cpu with the lower number first. To achieve this we introduce two new spinlock functions double_spin_lock and double_spin_unlock which lock or unlock two locks in a given order.

* | [PATCH] clocksource init adjustments (fix bug #7426)john stultz2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch resolves the issue found here: http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7426 The basic summary is: Currently we register most of i386/x86_64 clocksources at module_init time. Then we enable clocksource selection at late_initcall time. This causes some problems for drivers that use gettimeofday for init calibration routines (specifically the es1968 driver in this case), where durring module_init, the only clocksource available is the low-res jiffies clocksource. This may cause slight calibration errors, due to the small sampling time used. It should be noted that drivers that require fine grained time may not function on architectures that do not have better then jiffies resolution timekeeping (there are a few). However, this does not discount the reasonable need for such fine-grained timekeeping at init time. Thus the solution here is to register clocksources earlier (ideally when the hardware is being initialized), and then we enable clocksource selection at fs_initcall (before device_initcall). This patch should probably get some testing time in -mm, since clocksource selection is one of the most important issues for correct timekeeping, and I've only been able to test this on a few of my own boxes.

* | [PATCH] sched: remove SMT niceCon Kolivas2007-03-05
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the SMT-nice feature which idles sibling cpus on SMT cpus to facilitiate nice working properly where cpu power is shared. The idling of cpus in the presence of runnable tasks is considered too fragile, easy to break with outside code, and the complexity of managing this system if an architecture comes along with many logical cores sharing cpu power will be unworkable. Remove the associated per_cpu_gain variable in sched_domains used only by this code. Also: The reason is that with dynticks enabled, this code breaks without yet further tweaks so dynticks brought on the rapid demise of this code. So either we tweak this code or kill it off entirely. It was Ingo's preference to kill it off. Either way this needs to happen for 2.6.21 since dynticks has gone in.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SMT scheduler incorrectly skips kernel threads even if they are runnable (but they are preempted by a higher-prio user-space task which got SMT-delayed by an even higher-priority task running on a sibling CPU). Fix this for now by only doing the SMT-nice optimization if the to-be-delayed task is the only runnable task. (This should cover most of the real-life cases anyway.) This bug has been in the SMT scheduler since 2.6.17 or so, but has only been noticed now by the active check in the dynticks code.

* / / [PATCH] genirq: Mask irqs when migrating them.Eric W. Biederman2007-02-26
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | move_native_irqs tries to do the right thing when migrating irqs by disabling them. However disabling them is a software logical thing, not a hardware thing. This has always been a little flaky and after Ingo's latest round of changes it is guaranteed to not mask the apic. So this patch fixes move_native_irq to directly call the mask and unmask chip methods to guarantee that we mask the irq when we are migrating it. We must do this as it is required by all code that call into the path. Since we don't know the masked status when IRQ_DISABLED is set so we will not be able to restore it. The patch makes the code just give up and trying again the next time this routing is called. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following patch adds a new mode to the audit system. It uses the audit_enabled config option to introduce the idea of audit enabled, but configuration is immutable. Any attempt to change the configuration while in this mode is audited. To change the audit rules, you'd need to reboot the machine. To use this option, you'd need a modified version of auditctl and use "-e 2". This is intended to go at the end of the audit.rules file for people that want an immutable configuration. This patch also adds "res=" to a number of configuration commands that did not have it before. Signed-off-by: Steve Grubb <sgrubb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
